Expand description

Non-zero scalar type.

This type ensures that its value is not zero, ala core::num::NonZero*. To do this, the generic S type must impl both Default and ConstantTimeEq, with the requirement that S::default() returns 0.

In the context of ECC, it’s useful for ensuring that scalar multiplication cannot result in the point at infinity.
